The most I've ever done to my own system is swap out the old mono-LNB for a new quad and run the extra cable to the spare room. Thankfully I've never had to mount and position a dish, but if I ever do, I will definitely be using a sat finder to do it. |
So maybe save a bit of time and money getting a sat finder off ebay while I'm deciding on the starter system specs?
This lnb malarky, I noticed all the posts regarding quad lnb's etc. which I think I would definitely want to do, and pretty quickly as would want a larger selection of channels. Now each lnb is used per satellite? So a single lnb would not work on multiple sats at same time? So pointing at 42E would get everything from the sats at that point with one lnb? and the second could point at 28.2E and the 3rd from 19.2E (not sure what these sats just using the figures Ive seen mentioned before). Hope that makes sense to someone
